Gordon Ramsay decides to ditch Kitchen Nightmares

Gordon Ramsay has announced that he has filmed his final episode of Kitchen Nightmares.

In a blog post on his official website, the British celebrity chef said that his upcoming Channel 4 series Costa Del Nightmares will be his last in the franchise.

Ramsay said: “I've had a phenomenal 10 years making 123 episodes, 12 seasons, shot across 2 continents, watched by tens of millions of people and sold to over 150 countries. It's been a blast, but it's time to call it a day.

“Starting in 2004, this was the show that really propelled my TV career, and I'm very grateful for the amazing team behind the series and for the support from the viewers for almost over a decade!”

Kitchen Nightmares saw Ramsay turn up and help turn around struggling restaurants and spawned a US version made by Fox that ran for seven seasons from 2007.

Ramsay added: “I'd like to thank you all for being so supportive. I'm glad I've been able to entertain and hopefully help a few people along the way.

“It's sad to say goodbye to Kitchen Nightmares, but I'll be continuing with my other shows. It's been memorable! Thank you for watching.”
